Learning to walk

Sam’s been cruising along the furniture for a while now, but in the last few days he’s been striking out across the room: he can take two, sometimes three unsupported steps to get from coffee table to sofa.

Soon he will realize that he doesn’t need to lean on anything, and then we’ll be chasing him around the house. Sam has even less regard for his own safety than Jacob had at twelve months, and is always finding new ways to risk his life.
